Still relatively new to the brewing scene. Brewed caribou slobber (moose drool clone) last night. I've heard some really good things about this beer, so I figured I would give it a try. Woke up this morning and my carboy was ALIVE with activity! I switched my airlock out for a blowoff due to a huge head of krausen after only 8 hours in the primary! Now, the Krausen is actually filling the blowoff. I'm guessing this is ok and is the purpose of the blowoff vs airlock. Is this correct?
Another question, not related to caribou slobber alone, is about session beers (which northern brewer calls this beer). What exactly is a "session" beer and why is the ABV generally lower than most other types of beer?
Regardless, I'm really looking forward to getting this beer out of primary so I can get to brewing Midwest's Hop Head Double IPA I ordered today!
Thanks!
